Governor Asa Hutchinson has announced his intent to grant five pardons and no commutations. An additional 22 clemency requests were denied and eight had no action taken upon them. These include requests from both inmates and non-inmates.

The applicants intended for pardons have completed all jail time, fulfilled all parole and probationary requirements and paid all fines related to their sentences. There is a 30-day waiting period to receive public feedback on the notices before final action is taken.

Governor Hutchinson intends to grant a pardon to the following person:

Kevin D. Holliday (Hope): Manslaughter (C Felony).

This notice is issued based on the date of conviction (1995 – Howard County), the fact that all terms of the applicant’s sentence have been completed and there have been no further criminal-law violations. There are no law enforcement objections to the application.Special Thanks to Saratoga Ark Digest
